I played it today at my friends house and it was awesome, iI just wanted to know if the requirments would suit my comp, since it blows. So could someone tell me the requirements.
-
a p II 300 64mb ram and a voodoo 3 should do it ok
dont bother if you dont have a 3dcard

Counter-Strike is a quite graphic intensive game since version 1 with the new models came out.
With a P3450 , 128 meg ram with a Geforce DDR I get 47 frames and below.
Plan to go on a shopping spree when in america in may.
GeForce 3 or maybe a GeForce Ultra since they are dropping in price, AMD thunderbird 1+gigmhz.
Then I should be able to run it sweet..
-
i get with a pII 667, 128 Rd ram and a Geforce Pro a nice 60-70 fps !
but a pII300 and above should do the trick!! at a resultion of 800 x 600 ;)
-
No. A pentium 2 450 scsi w\\ a tnt 2 can only push 30FPS max at 800x600, believe me, it\'s graphically intensive for 1.0 and it\'s going to remain so with 1.1 which should be out fairly soon. I run a P3 800 on a generic Intel 3d card (max of 8mb of ram for that) and 128mb of standard ram and i pull 40FPS. You can tell what\'s taking most of the weight in terms of power (thank god for my P3). If I were you, I recommend a P2 400 at the least. FPS is the most important aspect of the game. Not even lag is that much of a factor thanks to the HL netcode.
In case anyone was wondering, I play CS on about 4 main servers:
UPNetworks T3 1.0
-=7 bits primary CS 24/7 server 1.0=-
SYBLPB CS server
]uGk[ House of Pain
I go to all of them as frequently as I can. Hell, maybe you\'ve played me, [PC]MrClean, ]uGk-r[John Carmack, [PC]Izo, [PC]AK-Raper. [PC]Ryu. The [PC] Clan is a fake clan that me and 4 other people made up just so that way people wont ask if I can join, but I\'m pretty good friends with the admins on most of those servers listed there.
-
well i was talking about the recommened MINIMUM, you will get a steady 25 fps framerate. But it also depends on the quality of the mobo, Power supply and HD and ofcourse your drivers.
But does anyone know if there is going to be any updates for cs, like with new weapons and new features?
-
http://counter-strike.net for all the latest news on updates and such. A few new maps are going to be added to 1.0, but who knows what will happen with the weapons side of things. Rumor has it, there will be an option to switch between CS 1.0 models and CS 7.1 models for low end and high end PC\'s. The 7.1 models, imo, are the best models ever for CS and WHY they even bothered to remove them in favor of the horrid 1.0 models by Valve is beyond me. In any case, 1.1 will be the best version of CS since 7.1, which was the first CS to improve since CS 5.2.
Back on topic, the best PC I can recommend is no less then a P2 350 with a voodoo 2 at 640x480. That\'ll push about 25FPS I bet. It would also help a lot if you had BB, even though lag doesn\'t affect gameplay that much, it could help with FPS.

Dunno bout the guns, but there is a new addion to dust comming out, and the revamped docks (best map imo)
Heres a new one called de_rotterdam

Looking mighty nice. Notice the Full Scene Anti Alising. Want GeForce 2/3 Ultra :)
-
looking very nice, if you want to use FSAA go for the gf3, it wont have a big preformance hit
but I use FSAA on my Geforce Pro, and it works fine :)
-
Same here with My Creative Geforce DDR.
1024x768 with 1.5x1.5 FSAA.
Dunno what to go for. The Geforce 3, or wait for ATI\'s new Radon which will be very good.
The current ge force is doing the job. I might just milk it and wait and see which is best :)
-
Ah, a discussion about Counter Strike; the most satisfying Multiplayer -experience [ after Unreal Tournament; wich just hit me somehow! ]. Call it realistic, or not, but everyone loves it! :)
Ah, you lucky pastarts with the latest systems; I will have to suffer with the resolution set to 800x600 and still it fights back and never runs as smooth as I could hope...
But lag is something wich doesn\'t bother me TOO much... but it still does.
Remember, lag happens...
Btw. you can find me ( if lucky ) by the name Jozq, but when I play ( and I don\'t play so much, due to lack of time ), I usually play on finnish servers... but there\'s a small possibility to encounter me... and you\'d sure hope the meeting will happen in the same side ;)
-
lag is not a prob for cs, its netcode is very smooth. I have a cable modem so no wories for :)
-
man.
im saving up and am gonna buy my own computer.
this heap of ****e, is in my mums room.
-
As a matter of a fact, I plan on buying it today. But I have no 3d card. :/ A friend of mine has Counter-Strike on his comp with no 3d card and it runs fine. The graphics could be better but besides that its a smooth a silk.
I have 196mb of RAM, a 3mb\\sec cable modem, and my processor is a 500mhz AMD K-6 2 3D. Will it run ok for me???
-
Wow I hate my ****in computer. Its worse than all of yours. Its not even 3 years old and its the worst piece of **** ever. My dad is such a **** about gettin a new one. So when I get my job, soon, I\'ll just save up and buy my own compa nd keep it in my room and not let anyone else use it, f*ck the rest of my family.
-
Counter-strike 1.1 linux is out. End user version will be available tomorrow. They have improved the character models as seen below.

I dunno know what convinced my dad (Counter-Stike or me complaining all the time) but last ntie he finally was lookin at new comps. I hope we get a new comp soon cajuse i really wanna play CSTike on a good computer. I think CStrike convinced him, I cought him lookin through the manual last nite and when i walked in the room, he acted like he wasnt doin anything,lol.

ARG!!!!!!!!!!! :rpissed: :rpissed: GRRRRRRRRRR!!!!!! AAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! PIECE OF SH!T MOTHERF*CKER @$$ D!CK F*CKING HELL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Grrr.... I am really mad(as if you didn\'t notice already). Just 5 minutes before my dad was heading out to Staples(to get a new printer cartridge) I told him about how I wanted to buy a new comp game....and how it would take up half the remaining space on our hard drive. His answer was short but not sweet: No. After argueing with him for the next few hours I finally got him to give me an answer: No. I told him how a guy I knew on the internet(Lucas Biggins) told me that he got a 20gb hard drive for $80 and that logically, we could get a 10gb one for $40. No. I told him that I didn\'t have enough cash myself to buy a new HDD and that if he would add an extra $10 then I could get one. No. Finally, I went crying to my mommy. No.
It just doesn\'t make sense to me, I have about 1gb left on my HDD, Counter-Strike takes up 500mb, that would leave another 500mb left. There is basically nothing else my dad needs to put on that computer, and yet he won\'t let me use the remaining space because "Maybe he\'ll start to use it". My dad is always like that, he always says "Maybe I\'ll__________".
It just makes me really freakin mad. I have enough money to buy one myself but if I do, I won\'t have enough cash to buy all the upcoming PS2 games I want. I need to literally save every penny I have for PS2 games. I just wish GT3 and RF hadn\'t been delayed, because then I could have just bought them all this month and got it all over with. Instead I have to scrimp and save all the money I can get until the last game(GT3) I want gets released in June.
And I really wanted Counter-Strike too...
